It was a giddy moment when my new curtains went up in my dining room this afternoon.
I still have one more panel to make and a few more finishing touches and the dining room will be done**.
The best thing about these curtains? They look luxurious, but each panel took about 20 minutes to make and cost me only $22.00.
I even made a matching cord cozy to cover my chandelier chain and wires.
More to come…

wow they are nice love the color really brings it all together
I love those curtains and the chandelier. Beautiful
Your curtain panels are gorgeous. I'm a blue and white fan from the get-go, so you can do no wrong in this room as far as I am concerned. It's all fabulous! And the disclaimer at the end — well that's a given! Loved it!
Love your dining room!! And adore the new curtains!!!!
They are beautiful! I am a huge fan of blue and white!!
Those are beautiful curtains!! That fabric is yummy!
They look really pretty !
I love that fabric – saw it a while back and it was a strong contender for a chair recovering project.
they look great!
They look great! I love the colour, and I think they are really going to make that room fabulous! How exciting..
Flick 🙂
That fabric is really pretty! What a great deal. A lot of wow factor for $22!
That, my friend, is perfection 🙂
oh, they are soooooo beautiful!
ok, that panel is seriously gorgeous! I LOVE that fabric! And I'm so glad you posted this b/c it totally reminded me that my drop cloth panels {that I finally convinced my mom to sew for me today} were in the washer! Whew, good save, they would be STINKY in the am!
love the disclaimer at the end~
can't wait to see more gorgeous pics!!!
Lovin what I'm seeing 🙂 Beautiful color!!
looking gorgeous, and only $22?? How do you do it?
LOVE that fabric! I want it!!!
Could you tell me what stain color you used — I *think* I remember that you mentioned it at some point, but at the time I wasn't thinking I would need to redo my floors. But we've *finally* closed on a house that will need some refinishing, and I think it would be the perfect color for my dining/living room floors. And I can't find it anywhere!
Thanks in advance for your help!
The drapes are fantastic..great color and fabric. The seat covers are adorable and I just love your style!
xo, Sherry
Love your flash of blue! Really wakes up the room!
LOL on the disclaimer. I say that's a universal DIY rule set in stone. 🙂

They're gorgeous! I had to click on your post when it came up on my reader, because guess what I did today? Put up new dining room curtains! (but I made mine from drop cloths. will post soon.)
Blessings,

Your curtains look wonderful! Great fabric and a nice addition to your dining room. I can't believe that you made those in 20 minutes and for only $22.00. Very chic!
Beautiful! Can you do a tutorial on your cord cover? I've always wondered if there was a way to get those on after a chandelier is already wired in…
I love the pattern on your curtains. We are about to move to a rental and I will want cheap ideas for "drapes" please share how you made them. I love your sight and I love that you posted all weekend:-) Thanks
Oh, I love that fabric. Your dininig room is really coming together. And no of course it would never be 'finished', what would you blog about then…. 🙂
Ha! Love you "will change" clause! What fun! And so true!!
Your curtains are wonderful and the material is so rich! The chain cozy is perfect!!

Lovely…the fabric is a perfect choice. Your closing statement is a hoot! ~olive
Sweet! Great look, great price – great job! Love the caveat too : )
Love the fabric color and pattern, especially seeing it next to your blue and white items on the wall. Your dining room looks so pretty, too!
I love your disclaimer!
Your curtains are gorgeous! That fabric is divine, I love it. Your whole dining room looks fabulous and how wonderful to have a room that is completed! Hope you have had a lovely start to your week ~ Tina xx
Love your new curtains! What a lovey room!
Beautiful… can I ask the pattern or source of the fabric?
Ha! I love the disclaimer at the end. I may post that in my living room. LOL! Lisa~
LOVE the curtains.
And I live by your disclaimer 😉 much to the dismay of my family.
Have a blessed day …and enjoy your new view!
I swoon! My heart skips a beat…. is something wrong with me?
I have the same fabric for my valances, the same chalkboard, the same blue and white plate. Somehow it all looks more chic in your home. Sigh.
(My husband even used to be a youth minister….)
If you lived near Wheaton, I would offer you a pretty penny to sprinkle your magic fairy dust on my home!
Ahhhh! They're gorgeous–absolutely LOVE them. Goodness girl, you have got some great taste, I'll tell you what!
Gorgeous! I love the blue against the wood floor. Great job.
The fabric is absolutely beautiful. It really gives the room a dramatic feel!

Your curtains are just the perfect color! Chandy ain't bad either.

Love the new curtains!
Curtains are gorgeous and so is the cord cozy. But I have to say the disclaimer was the best part! 🙂
great fabric, love the cord cover too..
Oh my goodness, these look fabulous and the room is magazine ready! Wow! I like the idea that you reserve the right to change things—I am forever doing that! Great job Miss Mustard.
Your disclaimer is great! 🙂
Blessings!
Kudos on your dining room curtains, from one who is about to sew some for her own dining room! That print is very Sarah Richardson. I hope you love her nearly as much as I do.
Love the room! At one time, I also hung blue/white plates. Would you please be so kind as to share the quote on the blackboard and the horned looking thing on top? Thanks in advance.
those look gorgeous! i especially love the drama they add to the room. beautiful choice in fabric!
Gorgeous! I want to redo my dining room, you want to come and help???

I really love patterned curtains. And those are gorgeous. Love how you matched the cord cover.
They're lovely! Great job. I just made a chandelier chain cover to match my decor, too! Blue toile in my breakfast nook. Makes it so personal.

The fabric AND your pictures are stunning. You are SO talented!
Loving your curtains! They are gorgeous!
I just wanted to thank you for including the info for where you got the fabric & the cost. Your curtains are gorgeous & they inspired me to recover a pair of scroll back parsons chairs I got for free on freecycle. I ordered the same print in moss green & even got free shipping! This is going to be my next project for my blog; revampedhomefurnishings.blogspot.com check it out if you have a chance & thanks for letting me in on your great find!
The chandelier is so beautiful! I like the curtains, too! They all suit together.
